2025

Corporate
Responsibility
Report
At AVENIR GLOBAL, corporate responsibility is closely tied to how we work, how we lead, and how we support our people, clients, and communities. In 2025, we focused on strengthening the foundations of our program through practical action, sound governance, and meaningful engagement across our network.
This year marked an important milestone with the completion of our first Firm-wide greenhouse gas inventory. While this is the first step of a long journey, it provides us with a clearer understanding of our environmental footprint and will help inform future actions to reduce the impact of our business activities.

We also made significant progress in reinforcing our ethical framework. In 2025, we strengthened our approach to data protection and privacy through the introduction of new global guidelines, enhanced internal processes, and mandatory training for employees. At the same time, we advanced our third-party risk management practices with the launch of a sustainable procurement policy and improved due diligence processes. These efforts help ensure that our partners uphold the same high standards of integrity and responsibility that we apply to our own operations.

Taken together, these initiatives reflect a maturing approach to corporate responsibility—one that was also acknowledged through our 2025 EcoVadis assessment, which recognized our continued engagement across key environmental, social, and governance topics.

What stands out most throughout this report is the commitment of our teams. Across regions and brands, colleagues took action in ways that reflect both our shared values and local realities—whether through professional development, community engagement, or initiatives that foster inclusion and wellbeing.

We approach corporate responsibility with transparency and humility. We are proud of the progress made in 2025, conscious of the work ahead, and remain committed to continuous improvement as our Firm evolves.
